If you ask they might do numbers, but I think they insert into the cake although you could be creative and use something like oasis and wrap it in a silver covering to make them stand up?

Debs, thanks for that. I didn't realise they came with film on I don't thinkI would have realised ROFL!! That's good then, they are a good price so are defintiely worth the money. I'm not sure about the crystals either as the cake will have sugar ones and diamante trim so it might be too much!

I am also contemplating burgundy! I was thinking burgundy, ivory, white(silver), crystals. Or as alternative ivory-white-gold. (maybe a few burgundy accents though...LOL)(I will see if i can trick guest into wearing white/light colours....lol

I want to make butterfies and flowers of crystal beads(acrylic if i have to) AND a
=====================>>>>>CRYSTAL TREEEEEEE! I am mad about the idea.

I want to make one myself and hang on it some white cristmas lights and strings of acrylic beads and maybe white/silver/ivory butterflies on fishing line. Of course i will be using acrylic beads.

Oooh oooh I love your idea of diamante pins in the pillar candles, I love pillar candles! Is it the floral pins that you are using? (mmm I wonder if they only use them in silk flowers or also in fresh ones???)

I was thinking of getting those sugarcraft silicone moulds from ebay and making butterflies of craft non-bake clay, and painting them glittery colours.

Best of luck and thank you for starting this thread, it is very isnpiring!

Thanks for that - you see I saw these from a link at Y&YW, and thought they'd be fab for table numbers? Bit pricey though....must make a note to stop looking on Etsy!!

Hmmmmm....gonna have a think
